At ECI Comfort, we’ve always made it our mission to help homeowners stay comfortable and save money. But right now, we’re facing an urgent situation—and we want to make sure you don’t get caught off guard. Due to new federal tariffs announced earlier this month, the cost of HVAC equipment is about to jump dramatically. This isn’t a scare tactic. It’s a real change happening in the market, and it will directly affect the price of heating and cooling systems in the very near future.
That’s why we’re urging our community: If you’re considering upgrading or replacing your HVAC system, the time to act is now.
What’s Happening?
On April 5th, the U.S. government put new tariffs into effect that are already shaking up the HVAC industry. These tariffs include:
-
A 10% increase on all imported goods
-
Even higher tariffs—up to 46%—on specific countries that manufacture HVAC components, including China, Vietnam, Japan, and many others
Many HVAC systems and their parts rely on materials and electronics from these countries. As a result, manufacturers are already raising prices, and those increases will be passed on to distributors, contractors, and ultimately—to you, the homeowner.
What This Means for You
Let’s break it down:
-
Prices Are Going Up—Fast: We’re already getting word from our suppliers that equipment costs are increasing. Within the next few weeks, the same system you could install today may cost hundreds or even thousands more.
-
Availability Could Drop: As the supply chain adjusts, certain units and parts may become harder to find. That means delays, fewer choices, and longer wait times—especially during peak season.
-
Waiting Will Cost You: If you're thinking about replacing your system before summer, waiting could cost you big. Not just in upfront price, but also in energy bills if you're stuck with an inefficient system through the hottest months.
